What does “Quota Full” mean?

If you receive “quota full” the survey is normally already full of respondents within the same target range.
This can either be before the start of a survey, which is normally indicated as closed, or sometimes in the early part of a survey where certain criteria within the survey becomes filled (for example, within a certain age bracket).
For surveys that you receive a “quota full” message they do not count as completed surveys and no rewards are earned, as the information is not used.

How often does this happen and how can I reduce the chances?

This varies at the rate any given survey is responded to and the overall amount of responses needed by different people to fill a quota. For this reason we encourage participants to answer at their soonest possible opportunity.

What is a “Screen Out”?

The surveys you receive are usually looking for the specific opinions of a very set group of people. If we don’t already know this information we will ask a few questions at the start of a survey to make sure that it is relevant to you. If it isn’t you may be ‘screened out’ or get a message that you haven’t qualified for the survey on this occasion.
Rather than consuming your time on answers that cannot be used the survey finishes early (normally within the first few questions).
This can happen from time to time, even if you have originally been selected to take part, as some surveys require more specific information than the system can initially provide.

How can I get more surveys on topics that match my interests?

Questions about yourself and your lifestyle are often asked when you login to your account as well as at the start and end of the surveys.
To help us find you the most relevant surveys possible, greatly increasing your chance to complete surveys, it is important that you answer these as accurately as possible.
Frequently updating your profile questions, where anything has changed, will also help us display surveys to you where opinions are being sought from people with your background.
